Marta Mart\u00ednez Sanz<\/strong><\/h3>Instituto de Investigaci\u00f3n en Ciencias de la Alimentaci\u00f3n (CIAL, UAM-CSIC) Spain<\/span>


From structure to nutrition: linking the multi-scale architecture of alternative food systems to their digestion mechanisms<\/em><\/strong>

Marta Mart\u00ednez is a tenured scientist at the Institute of Food Science Research (CIAL-CSIC-UAM). Her scientific interests lie in the multi-scale structural study of food biomass sources and the correlation with techno-functional properties, to develop strategies aimed at a more efficient use of natural resources for food applications. She has extensive knowledge in the application of X-ray and neutron scattering techniques to study the structure of food systems and packaging materials, as well as to understand the gastrointestinal digestion mechanism of foods.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Ben Boyd<\/strong><\/h3>Monash University (Australia) and University of Copenhagen (Denmark)<\/span>


A new look at milk as a drug delivery system, through the lens of lipid digestion<\/em><\/strong>

Ben Boyd is a colloid and physical chemist with PhD from the University of Melbourne. He has held an academic position at Monash Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences (MIPS) at Monash University in Australia since 2003. He recently completed a concurrent Novo Nordisk Laureate Research Fellowship based at the University of Copenhagen, and in April he commenced\u00a0an ARC Industry Laureate\u00a0Research Fellowship. His research focuses on colloidal and structural aspects of lipids and\u00a0lipid self-assembly during digestion, and his group is active in developing new synchrotron and spectroscopy-based characterization approaches for lipid and solid-state systems.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Anna Str\u00f6m<\/strong><\/h3>Chalmers University of Technology (Sweden)<\/span>


Functional and health aspects of plant protein-polysaccharide interactions<\/em><\/strong>

Anna Str\u00f6m\u00a0is a professor in Applied Chemistry at the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden. She holds a degree in Chemical Engineering from Chalmers and earned her PhD in Food and Nutritional Science from University College Cork, Ireland. Following her doctoral studies, Anna joined Unilever R&D in the Netherlands, where she worked as a research manager and later as a project leader. Since 2012, she has pursued an academic career at Chalmers.
Anna Str\u00f6m has extensive experience in food structure both outside and inside the human body. Her current research centers on digestion and colonic fermentation of protein\u2013polysaccharide structures, protein\u2013polysaccharide interactions, molecular transport in soft matter, and the development of materials from side-streams.
